Popis: Image-guided percutaneous peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter insertion has become increasingly relied upon to provide urgent access for late presenting kidney failure patients, to overcome surgical backlogs and limited operating room access, to avoid general anesthesia in high-risk patients, and, by itself, as an alternative approach to surgical PD access. Advanced planning for the procedure is essential to assure the best possible outcome. Appropriate selection of patients for percutaneous PD catheter placement, choosing the most suitable catheter type, determining insertion and exit site locations, and final patient preparations facilitate the performance of the procedure, minimizes the risk of complications, and improves the likelihood of providing a successful long-term peritoneal access.
